Ferus Presents: Ben Burgess

Free Event, All Ages

Ben Burgess is the pride of East Dallas, a renaissance man from the jump. After landing his first career cut on the Jonas Brothers’ “Chillin’ In the Summertime,” he decided to pack up his blossoming career in Austin, Texas to chase dreams in Los Angeles, then Nashville shortly thereafter when his “twang” got a little too loud for the West Coast.

Burgess started writing with Warner Chappell Music Publishing in 2015, where he stock piled cuts including Morgan Wallen’s multi-week #1, 6X platinum smash “Whiskey Glasses,” Tyler Rich’s gold “The Difference,” Pat Green’s Texas radio #1 “Drinkin’ Days,” Lil Wayne’s “Dreams,” Martin Garrix & Troye Sivan’s platinum “There for You,” Dierks Bentley’s “My Religion,” HARDY’s “SIGNED, SOBER YOU,” and more. His tracks have also landed TV placements on ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy and commercial spots for Major League Baseball, Xbox, and Lexus.

Breaking out as an artist in his own right, Burgess signed to Big Loud Records in 2020, and in the same year, was featured on Diplo Presents Thomas Wesley’s buzzy Chapter 1: Snake Oil album with “Heartbreak.” He was featured HIXTAPE: Vol. 2 ‘s “Red Dirt Clouds” alongside David Lee Murphy and Big Loud roster mate ERNEST. Burgess’ forthcoming debut album is slated to release this year, with his first single “Tears The Size of Texas” releasing July 22.
